Customers can find discounts on top brands including Barbie, Hot Wheels and Fisher Prices
The sale is on in Morrisons stores only – you won’t find the discounts online.
The supermarket has 423 stores and you can find your nearest using its store locator tool.
David Catton, toy buyer at Morrisons, said: “We’re reducing the price of our toys now to help customers spread the cost of the festive season and tick off some important jobs.”
The products on sale include a Hot Wheels racing set down from £65 to £32.50 – a saving of 50%.
And you can pick up a Super Mario Kart radio control set for £27.50, half off the usual price of £55.
Meanwhile, there’s a Play-Doh creations super colourful cafe playset on sale for £33 down from £50.
Of course, it’s always worth comparing prices when looking to buy any product.
